Tomorrow, we will be attending Heilbronn Slush'D, a #startup festival led by local #ecosystem teams. We are happy to be a part of such a great event! 🚀

Congratulations to Sebastian Schmidt, #Geodata #Scientist at 🧙‍♂️ ISTARI.AI 🧙🏾, who published his first novel "Blattgold" ("Gold Leaf") last week. It is a crime story that takes place in his hometown, Pforzheim in Germany. We are very proud of him! 🧙🏼🥳🚀

Thank you Hanna Hottenrott 🇪🇺 for the positive feedback! 🚀🧙‍♀️

Tomorrow, we will be attending Start-up BW in #Stuttgart, the biggest #startup event in Baden-Wuerttemberg. Come visit us directly at our 🧙‍♂️ ISTARI.AI 🧙🏾 booth in the #AI area! We are looking forward to an exciting day of #networking and #pitching.🧙‍♀️🚀

One of our team members, Jannik, is going to work at our second office in AI Campus Berlin for the next few months. Every week, exciting events and #workshops take place there. Last week, Jannik listened to a presentation on #SOTA techniques for neural search. 🚀🧙‍♀️

Highlights of September 2022 🚀 Sebastian Schmidt published his first book 🚀Jannik moved to Berlin to work in AI Campus Berlin 🚀Jan Kinne moved to #Boston to research at Harvard University and apply our webAI to US #data 🚀We attended Heilbronn Slush'D and Start-up BW 🚀We implemented #scrum

As part of a #research stay, Jan Kinne joined Harvard CGA, a member of the Harvard Institute for Quantitative Social Science, at Harvard University, as a postdoctoral fellow. Jan now works on the application of the webAI to US companies. Last week, he held a presentation on his research agenda and potential future joint research.🚀

Happy about the positive feedback from Dr. Jan-Philipp Ahrens! 😊

Another reference post 🚀 Very happy about the positive feedback from Harald Hochreiter!

A sneak peek of the paper “When is AI Adoption contagious? Epidemic effects and relational embeddedness in the inter-firm diffusion of Artificial Intelligence”. Johannes Dahlke is the lead author of this paper and Sebastian Schmidt created a map that shows #ai #hotspots in #Munich.

Our co-founder Jan Kinne is wrapping up his month-long on-site residency at the Center for Geographical Analysis at Harvard Institute for Quantitative Social Science. Over the next two months, our collaboration continues remotely and you can look forward to our joint paper on "#sustainable #blockchain companies in the US"!

We are proud to announce that we won the first prize in the pitching competition at the Heilbronn Slush'D, a leading #startup #festival with more than 750 participants. Additionally, we will receive mentoring, connections, and acceleration support from the Campus Founders! 🚀🧙‍♀️🧙‍♂️

Highlights of October 🚀 Announcement of winning first prize at the Heilbronn Slush'D 🚀 We successfully finished our first #scrum sprint 🚀 We performed scaling tests with our webAI (from 1.5 million DACH firms to 10 million EU firms) 🚀 Jan Kinne completed his stay at Harvard University

One of the topics we are the most interested in at the moment is #blockchain. This map shows the share of #sustainable companies in all companies using blockchain technology in the US at the county level. It is one of the results of our ongoing study about blockchain diffusion.

This week, members of 4u-ventures GmbH came to visit us in Mannheim. As part of a workshop, we worked on Sales and Marketing strategies. Furthermore, we discussed our development up to now and our goals for the future 🧙‍♂️🚀

The Campus Founders organize #community and #networking events on a regular basis. The Community Day takes place every quarter and offers the chance to experience the startup #ecosystem Heilbronn-Franken. We from 🧙‍♂️ ISTARI.AI 🧙🏾 also had a booth and presented ourselves there 🚀🧙🏼

On Monday, we finished off the successful year with a Christmas Dinner. Before dinner, we enjoyed some mulled wine and nice chats at the office. It was great to have the #team come together and celebrate this year’s accomplishments! 🥳🧙🏼🚀🎄

Our study on #sustainable #blockchain companies also examines their interconnectedness. This map shows the connection of blockchain companies in the US to sustainable companies. The axes between the agglomerations and a network between the West and East coast can be derived.

The whole 🧙‍♂️ ISTARI.AI 🧙🏾-team wishes Merry Christmas! 🎄⭐️🎄🎅🏼 Thank you for an amazing year!
